Today's Blind Items - The Producer

If you Google this north of the border three named producer, his headshot comes up and his IMDb page and he looks like how you would expect a professional producer to look. The first couple lines of his IMDb profile that you see on Google's homepage make it seem like he is a world respected producer. It is only when you actually go into his IMDb and look at his credits that you realize he doesn't have any for nearly the past decade. Why? He is young. Still on the younger side of 50. What he does now with the help of a partner who has multiple aliases is screw over filmmakers. A filmmaker comes to them with an completed film but no distribution and these "producers" go sell international rights and whatever rights they can and keep all the money. They leave the filmmaker locked in post production. The people who bought the rights are pissed. This time though they may have crossed a line because the most recent filmmaker they screwed over is related to the person second in charge at Cannes and the word is now out about the two "producers."
